I'm Surprised. This is actually a really interesting version to Super Metroid. I really like some of the layouts and the different idea paths.. For example: The pipe underwater that you go through to reach a lower area.. Just amazing :)
you sir, apparently don't understand what TAS videos are then. These videos take hours and hours to do, with thousands of replays. Its the end result that makes these vids interesting, it's not meant to show someone's skill, it's just to be entertaining, and to see how fast a game could be completed in theory.
actually the TAS doesn't aim only down. (shouldn't atleast.) what it does it that it does something called arm-pumping wich is you spam L and R that aims down and up. for each time samus aims down or up she moves forward one pixel extra. since this is a TAS this might be done so quick that it only looks like he's aiming down tho. Then again this could be a TAS run without armpumping.
I I can not play that game . I tried to install the IPS did not work. I looked for other versions and nothing . Can someone help me because I do not think anything on the internet that works. Please :( :( :(
i like samus's color changes on this hack. the varia suit looks like it's the color scheme of the suit on Metroid 2 (In the art, at least) and the white and blue color scheme seems to look good on anything..though i would have liked to see what the gravity suit color scheme was, if t was changed at all.
rojer Mcv1p It's a interesting thing. Those doors have the same data tags as doors that are grey, unopenable, and so when you open those doors it also changes the data tag of the grey door into opened.
HOLY SHIT. he skipped soo much.... he skipped: power bombs, gravity suit, all the other beams... 19:45 is the sickest sequence break of them all... this is a really bad exploration hack, but a really good puzzle hack. its just that he really broke the puzzle into pieces.
Wow you just mocked the Mockingbird Station. Also it is a good hack, he just TAS'd the hell out of it with glitches to basically skip a lot of content.
Actually, you don't NEED to perform these glitches. He does it because it's faster, as it skips large portions of the romhack, and that's all that matters in a any% TAS.
GoldenJoe Same here.... I think that this TAS videos are funny to watch but play this hack must be a pain in the ***, I mean, the original game is rewarding but this is frustrating.
Armand Avart In this mode it looks like the goal is to destroy the machinery keeping the mockingbird station running; the station appears to have been created as a secondary HQ or base for the space pirates and so, has high ranking pirates but not mother brain herself. Multiple doors are destroyed that are connected to machinery which probably serve the purpose as shields or some security system and at the very end the machine core is destroyed and so the base begins to go into meltdown. For a custom story hack its pretty damn good (IMO)
+Armand Avart Sorry but if someone can go through walls, what's to stop them from losing a life? I think Super Missles were sparse so they had to travel more. But I never felt any danger for the player
@xMisterEpicx 60 FPS reduced to 24 give 12 Hz flickerings. You'd better check it via virtualdub & use when we have 30Hz flickers like here. instead of ynynynynyn on 60 you get yynnyynnyynn at 24. Got it?
15 months late, no actual hacks were used in the playthrough, although I'd wager a gamble that the liberal use of savestates and using frame-by-frame inputs would be considered cheats to some.
Hey this looks very interesting. I would love to see a hacked version of this game not just with new areas, but new items, enemies and bosses too. Not just the same enemies and bosses with different behaviors, but new appearances too, not simple re-colorings.
yea funny thing earlier today i was serching for a rom hack, was looking to see if anyone tried to make a SOTN/Super Metroid crossover for SNES,, have not found anything with different art/sprites
In the looking down while airborne pose, Samus's hitbox doesn't actually extend as far as her palette does, so while it looks like she should have been hit going through the door, there is no actual collision taking place.
I wonder what that blue lava like stuff is supposed to be... ... my guess is it's some sort of coolant. (I'm just pulling that out of my ass since I saw something like that in Half-Life: Blue Shift.)
+xleo989x lack of resources. He could kill enemies to get more but he only refills when forced to wait or at areas it would be fast to. I was wondering the same earlier
xleo989x yes, he opens them so he doesn't have to spend time later with resources or just for fun. Like in the beginning you just have 5 Super Missles. Use em up, and you can get stuck until you get more. Second, Power Bombs take time to trigger as well.
So... throughout this I was screaming "WHAT THE FUCK WAS THAT!?". I"m familiar with the shoulder pumping, the mock ball/speed mock ball, the super short charge, the shooting-metal-door-that-normally-requires-wave-beam-missile trick, the intentional taking of damage to dart either left or right, but some of these tricks I'm just totally lost on what you did. I'm an amateur speed runner at best, but this is a level I wont achieve. I don't know what's going on anymore. O_o
I already noticed it's a bad hack when the guy got the morph ball. WHY IN THE NAME OF HELL WOULD YOU PUT MORPHBALL IN A MISSILE RECHARGE STATION?! Also probably because of the ultra slippery physics.
it's like in Mario maker when you see bare pipes just floating in midair. visually unappealing mapping, and also there's a lot of unnecessary unfairly hard tricks required
MastaGambit It looks boring, it has a bad title, the items are spread out, there is no prizes for exploring, I didn't see a single boss within 10 minutes, it spits on the face of the original.
